As the Senate prepares to begin a free-wheeling debate over immigration next week, White House officials have begun floating a possible compromise idea – a pledge to maintain legal immigration at current levels, about 1.1 million people a year, for more than a decade.

Offset by the millions from Central America. That’s why Mexico set up a 3 day free pass for illegal immigrants passing through that nation on their way to the US in 2015 when Obama said “if you’re a kid and you’re here when we declare amnesty, you can stay” to half a million showed up and claimed to be kids.

Should be ZERO immigration for the next ten years!

And, in the meantime (10 years ought to be enough time!) we need to DEPORT EVERY ILLEGAL ALIEN And EVERY MOSLEM in the USA!

So we can acculturate the immigrants that are here now!

Perhaps in ten years we’ll have figured out how to control our borders and our immigration policy will have caught up with the realities of the 21st Century?

Ya think?

Since The Greatest Generation, the population of the US has about tripled. (That we know of).

We're going to run out of stuff.

Gee wages aren’t low enough as it is. Maybe the globalists can get US wages down to 3rd world levels. That’s the goal isn’t it?

Wages are stagnant we don’t need any more imported people at all! Especially since Free Traitors™ are closing down all of our factories.

no American citizen can be found.

There's always an American citizen to be found at the right price.

Agreed, pass this law and say we are applying this to the 1M per year so no immigration for 5 years.

Don’t disagree, but the wording would count. You make the rules and restrictions so tight that there would always be an American who is qualified.
